Anyone that has been paying attention to the two series on ADP (including Brett Talley’s series) already noticed the discrepancies between the two. His are based on what we would call projections. Some projections are more accurate than others, but all of them would agree that projections amount to speculation.

Last time, we took a look at how total run index (TRI) compares with the average draft position for catchers. Of course, what makes life harder is that the NFBC rules are not necessarily the rules you will play under. As we saw, a couple of players that likely will

Average draft position (ADP) is one of the most valuable tools in a fantasy player’s arsenal if they know how to use it. Our own Brett Talley has already looked at the catcher position, but it is always a good idea to keep looking back. After all, ADP is an

The fantasy baseball season has officially started.  At least that is what the commercials on the Sirius XM broadcast of the 2014 FSTA Experts Draft told me.  While the NFBC and even the XFL have held drafts already this season, the FSTA Experts Draft definitely gets the most run in

In the last article about relief pitchers I didn’t pull any punches as to how I feel about the closer role. It gets that much more dicey when you add holds to the conversation. The long and short of it is that relief pitchers are not treated like other position

The news I’m about to tell you probably isn’t news to you.  Clayton Kershaw signed an extension of 7 years at $215 million last night with the Los Angeles Dodgers.  There is a player opt out clause after the fifth year, but the deal will still pay Kershaw $30 million

Projections for the 2014 season are already out from steamerprojections.com. After the 2012 season, Razzball did a study on the most accurate projection systems, and Steamer seemed to be one of the better systems at projecting both hitting and pitching. So I wanted to find a way to turn the Steamer projections

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I hate closers. Of course, I don’t hate any individual that happens to be a closer. It isn’t their fault that the game has gone out of control as closers are concerned. This isn’t a new diatribe on my part, but

Danny Salazar is a name you likely heard last year. He took the league by storm – as much by storm as you can playing in Cleveland, anyways. His stuff is huge as is his upside. You may have read about him here or here ($). If you haven’t had

There are probably close to 100 starting pitchers that will be used by fantasy players this year and some will emerge as fantasy stars (at least for the 2014 season), but we will be stopping our focus on the top 40 guys. One thing to keep in mind about the

The baseball world was rocked again when an arbitrator effectively held up the suspension for Alex Rodriguez. Initially, he was suspended for 215 games. He appealed the suspension (as was his right) and played through the end of the 2013 season. If he had accepted the suspension, it would have
